I think that you need to simplify #1 to:

1: Red Hat doesn't ship ZFS

As that is really all that matters and so that people can't argue that you  
are making a statement of knowledge about what/why Red Hat's lawyers have  
decided.  It does not matter on these lists WHY they don't ship it, just  
that they don't.

Just my opinion.
